The EucXylo<\/strong><\/span> Research Chair at Stellenbosch University has an exciting opportunity for a Postdoctoral researcher to work on advanced imaging of developing xylem.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Interested candidates are invited to apply to lead research into non-destructive methods for observing and quantifying developmental processes in differentiating xylem in eucalypts. This could include work in one or more directions including:<\/p>\n

\u2022 Optimizing and developing CT-scanning procedures for visualizing cambial cells in living plants in collaboration with the CT-scanning facility at Stellenbosch University, or<\/p>\n

\u2022 Finding appropriate methods for live-cell imaging using confocal and correlative microscopy, or<\/p>\n

\u2022 Using techniques such as MRI and PET to resolve cell-level detail in deep plant tissue.<\/p>\n

Ultimately, development of one or more approaches allowing imaging of living cambial cells and differentiating xylem in situ<\/em> would be an ideal outcome of the postdoctoral fellowship.<\/p>\n

For more information see this link to the full advert<\/a>. Please apply before the 18th of September 2020!<\/p>\n

Only applications sent in via the route specified in the advert will be considered. Only shortlisted candidates will be contacted for an interview.<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n
